Once they own your AS(S)...they can sell it whenever they want without any opportunity to challenge that decision.

Sorry George...couldn't help it!🤣

If all GB members died at once?

by Jofi_Wofo in

i don't suppose anyone knows for sure, but do we have any kind of hint of what would happen if all of the governing body members died at the same time- such that nobody was left to appoint successors?

in lieu of any solid evidence, i'd also be interested in hearing some speculation based on what we already know about the organizational structure.. it would certainly throw a wrench in either the teaching that the faithful and discreet slave will survive into the great tribulation and/or the implied doctrine that the the gb succession arrangement is justifiable biblically.

let me firmly disclaim any implication that i am encouraging violence or wishing death on the governing body.

Did You Think The Majority of Elders Were “Qualified “?

by minimus in

jw
friends

in my opinion, in a body of elders let’s say with 7 elders , 2 or 3 were pretty much on the ball.

they were reasonable, intelligent and moderate.

the others were either extremely extreme about everything or very liberal.. did you have qualified older men or were they all lousy to you?

JW GoneBad

"...but in common with nearly all Congregations, Pastoral Care was/is virtually non-existent."

Most (90%) Elders, out of necessity, come across as leutenants, company men, yes-men and enforcers of WT's unscriptural doctrines. You'll see very few with genuine people skills or who excel in good-bedside-manners!

So in answer to the OP...No! Very...very few WT/JW elders quality to serve the needs of the rank & file!

Don’t Trust the Courts! Splane’s Latest Anti-Apostate Talk

by StephaneLaliberte in

david splane’s talk “put up a hard fight for the faith” was that last talk presented on the saturday of the annual convention.

this talk was to largely address apostates and restated ideas and arguments often presented before.

however, this year, watchtower is spending more time in disqualifying negative findings originating from secular courts and here is the segment of interest here: .

There is a particular need for those who have experience in litigation, corporate matters, data protection, real estate transactions...

The above quote is from the August 2021 WT BOE letter.

These kind of specialized individuals normally make 6, 7 & up figure incomes. I think for 'Mother' to put out a formal call for this kind of muscle (that not even Jah can help her with) means she has some tough legal battles going on right now with a lot more to come in the near future!

(Y A Y...Happeeee!)

The way the Watchtower handles judgement is ---------THREE ELDERS, IN A SECRET MEETING, USUALLY AT NIGHT------WITH NO ONE TO REPRESENT THE VICTIMS
ELDERS BECOME ---JUDGE-JURY, and EXECUTIONER. ----and that is not THE JUSTICE WAY OF JUDGING PEOPLE.

Powerful...Pistolpete!
